Suoritustodistus

A suoritustodistus is a document issued in Finland that certifies the completion of a specific course, module, or study program. It is often translated as a "certificate of completion" or "transcript of records" depending on the context. This document serves as evidence of a student's academic achievements and can be used for various purposes, including applying for further education, seeking employment, or demonstrating acquired skills.

The content of a suoritustodistus typically includes the name of the educational institution, the student's name, the title of the completed course or program, the dates of study or completion, and the grade or credits awarded if applicable. For more comprehensive programs, it might also list individual modules or courses taken. The issuing institution's official stamp and signature are usually present to validate the document.

Suoritustodistus is a fundamental part of the Finnish education system, providing a clear record of learning and progress. It is distinct from a final degree certificate (tutkintotodistus), which is issued upon the completion of an entire degree program. A suoritustodistus can be obtained for single courses taken at universities, universities of applied sciences, vocational institutions, or even adult education centers.
